If you're a big baller - just buy the CR and have a softtop installed - in essence making a USDM Type S. You could sell the CR cover on here and put it towards a softtop setup - and I've seen complete setups, motors, frame, top on here before. I don't know how much it would run to have a dealer do it but money talks. Best of both worlds.

CR for me. i was a fool that didnt wait to see the CR before buying. dont be like me... but then again i like my AC and my convertible top 
so i'm going for the best of both worlds... CR parts for the base ap2!!! best of both worlds! 
i personally think that they over over charge for the CR for what you get... but its a REALLY nice car... IMO just not worth what they're charging.....

I wouldn't take the CR over a base S2k even for a weekend toy. With the money you save buying a regular S2k, you can get mods that will make it smoke a CR in a straight line or around a track. That extra second around a track the CR has over a base S2k is easily made up with Bilstein PSS9s, decent wheels/tires, and I/H/E/tune.

I like the CR, because it is built with the track in mind. Just like the Integra Type R I used to own. Shigeru Uehara's last gift to Honda (the chief engineer of the S2000, NSX and Integra Type R). Now, I just need to decide if I should plunk down the cash to get one!
